COPA CITY

The referee blows the whistle in exactly two weeks. Tens of thousands of fans are about to flood the city, and they don’t care about logistics - but you have to.

Here is what your to-do list looks like before the players even step off the bus:

• Open the world map and launch your marketing campaigns. You need to build demand and actually get the fans to the host city.

• Hire Specialists to manage the infrastructure and local volunteers to keep the crowds moving on the ground.

• Unlock the stadium. Analyze what the incoming fan groups expect, set your ticket prices, and start generating the cash you need to fund the citywide build.

• Transform empty streets into fully functioning Fanzones. Snap food trucks, merchandise stands, and toilets into the city's empty lots. Meeting fan needs is the only way to drive up your Match Readiness (MR) points.

• 50,000 passionate fans take up a lot of space. Zone the city carefully and manage the transit network so rival fan groups don’t cross paths and paralyze the streets.

• Secure high-paying sponsors and place their banners around the stadium to fund your operation. Then, get the arena ready - from the condition of the pitch to the team locker rooms.

• Map the final routes to the gates and watch the payoff. See the time-lapse of your infrastructure handling the massive crowd as the streets fill with club colors, flares, and chants.

The players are ready. The fans are arriving. Is your city prepared?
